A number of news agencies have reported on the extensive damage to Dún Beag Fort, Co Kerry in recent days.The CHERISH project obtained permission to record the site in June 2017. At this time a 3D model of the fort was generated using drone photography. It is our intention to revisit the site numerous times over the course of the project to determine the precise extent of this deterioration.https://www.rte.ie/news/2018/0104/931059-dunbeg-fort-kerry/http://www.thejournal.ie/kerry-fort-ancient-3781702-Jan2018https://www.independent.ie/regionals/kerryman/news/sea-claims-part-of-2000-year-old-west-kerry-monument-29981611.html
